“…Research has indicated that nicotine dependence treatment does not jeopardize drug treatment and may actually help recovery (Burling, Marshall, & Seidner, 1991;Hurt et al, 1994;Martin et al, 1997;Stuyt, 1997;Toneatto, Sobell, Sobell, & Kozlowski, 1995). Some research studies demonstrate that smoking cessation interventions improve long-term abstinence from alcohol or drugs, but not tobacco use (Bobo, McIlvain, Lando, Walker, & Leed-Kelly, 1998;Prochaska, Delucchi, & Hall, 2004).…”

This article examines the variables associated with the presence of smoking cessation interventions in drug abuse treatment units, as well as staff attitudes toward the integration of smoking cessation services as a component of care. Surveys were administered to 106 organizations, 348 treatment clinics, and 3,786 employees in agencies that participated in the National Drug Abuse Treatment Clinical Trials Network. Organizational factors, attributes of the treatment setting, and staff attitudes toward smoking cessation treatment were assessed. Use of smoking cessation interventions was associated with the number of additional services offered at clinics, residential detoxification services, and attitudes of the staff toward smoking cessation treatment. Staff attitudes toward integrating smoking cessation services in drug treatment were influenced by the number of pregnant women admitted, the number of ancillary services provided, the attitudes of staff toward evidence-based practices, and whether smoking cessation treatment was offered as a component of care.

“…In a study where no pharmacotherapy was offered, a three times per week supervised vigorous exercise program was associated with significantly higher abstinence, lower weight gain, fewer withdrawal symptoms and cravings in comparison with an equal contact control condition . Similarly, another study that included NRT as a treatment component (Martin et al, 1997) found that exercise facilitated cessation. However, the study had several methodological limitations and was conducted among problem drinkers (Ussher, Taylor, West, & McEwen, 2000).…”

This was the first randomized, controlled smoking cessation trial assessing the efficacy of an exercise intervention as an adjunct to nicotine gum therapy in comparison to both equal contact control and standard care control conditions. Sedentary female smokers aged 18-55 were provided with nicotine gum treatment along with brief behavioral counseling and were randomized into one of these three behavioral adjunct conditions. In the "intent-to-treat" sample (N=182), at end of treatment and at one-year follow up, there were clear, but non-significant, trends in univariate analyses in which the exercise and equal contact control conditions both had higher rates of abstinence than the standard care control. However, when adjusting for other predictors of relapse in a multiple logistic regression, both exercise and equal contact control showed an advantage over standard care control in avoiding early relapse (i.e., after 1 week). In a multivariate survival model adjusting for other predictors, the equal contact condition had a significantly lower likelihood of relapse compared to the standard care condition and there was a near significant trend in which exercise offered an advantage over standard care as well. While these findings suggest a slightly improved likelihood of abstinence with exercise compared with standard care, exercise did not differ from equal contact control in its efficacy. Potential explanations for these equivalent levels of efficacy and implications for the findings are discussed.

“…[14][15][16] The role of exercise in promoting successful smoking cessation may therefore be particularly important among smokers concerned about postcessation weight gain. However, there has been limited prospective documentation of the relationship between exercise and smoking cessation and no prior research has investigated whether this relationship is mediated by weight.…”

“…Three randomized controlled trials have shown that smokers who completed an exercise intervention had significantly higher cessation rates at the end of treatment than did controls. [14][15][16] However, additional research has demonstrated only marginally significant improvements in cessation rates among smokers participating in an exercise intervention relative to controls, [17][18][19][20][21][22][23] and other studies have found no differences in cessation outcomes between exercise and control conditions. [24][25][26] Thus, the efficacy of exercise interventions for smoking cessation remains unclear.…”

Introduction: Exercise has received attention as a method to prevent or reduce postcessation weight gain. However, little is known about how weight changes following quit attempts contribute to the relationship between exercise and smoking cessation. The present study assessed how exercise relates to cessation and whether initial changes in exercise after quitting smoking promote cessation through attenuated weight gain. Methods: Weight-concerned women smokers (N = 342) receiving cessation treatment provided biochemical validation of cessation, reported weekly exercise activities, and were weighed at 1, 3, and 6 months following treatment initiation. Survival analyses were used to determine time to and risk of relapse among women who reported engaging in varied levels of exercise at baseline. A mediation analysis was used to examine whether the effect of initial changes in exercise on longer-term cessation was driven by change in weight. All analyses were adjusted for relevant covariates. Results: Women smokers who reported high levels of exercise at baseline were less likely to relapse and returned to smoking more gradually than did women who reported low levels of exercise. Change in weight did not mediate the relationship between exercise and cessation. Conclusions: Cessation interventions utilizing an exercise component may have to develop exercise regimens of either higher duration or greater intensity to produce beneficial cessation outcomes, particularly when targeting sedentary smokers. Given that change in weight did not mediate the relationship between exercise and cessation, it is likely that other mediational processes are involved.
